In this paper, we investigated impact of corporate cash holdings and financial constraints on investment-cash flow sensitivity.In this regard, we studied and collected data of 130 listed companies in Tehran Stock Exchange for years 2002-2011. In this research, we used Whited Wu and Kaplan-Zingles indexes and payout ratio as measures of financial constraints. Results of this research showed a positive relationship between capital expenditure and cash flow and also unconstrained firms have higher investment-cash flow sensitivity than constrained firms. Other results showed that the interaction of cash holdings on investment-cash flow sensitivity is negative. In addition, we found that financially constrained firms have significantly higher impact of corporate cash holdings on investment-cash flow sensitivity than unconstrained firms.
